Swimming

For the last 10 weeks we have been going swimming at the Alloa Leisure Bowl. We walk up at quarter past nine in the morning and we get let in to the school five minutes early. When we get to the baths we get changed in the girls/boys changing rooms once we are ready we sit out side the girls changing room and we wait for the staff to come and do the register then we have a two second shower before we go into the pool.

A couple of weeks ago it was survival week and the boys had to just wear a t-shirt and the girls had to wear a t-shirt and a pair of shorts. It was really fun we had to hold onto 2 floats and keep ourselves up without putting our feet on the floor and it was for 1 minute (60 seconds.)It was really funny.

Yesterday it was fun week but we still had to do a little bit of swimming then once we had finished doing the lesson all of the toys got flung in to the pool and then everyone jumped into the pool and mostly everybody went for the big yellow worm things and the turtle and the crocodile and all that.
After that we got told to come out of the pool and then the lady called carry said to us well I wont see use lot again will I and then me kady caleb and Cameron said yes you will on the summer holidays and then she said oh yes because it is free swimming.

Fairness

On the 18th of June we were learning about fairness. We had to look up fair or fairness in the dictionary and discuss what we thought fairness means. For e.g it was a fair fight.

The next day we went into groups and we did some drama and we presented it to our peers and they gave us some feed back, we had to make sure that some of it involved fairness or unfairness. We liked watching our peers and they liked watching us and we loved doing our drama work it was fun and creative what all of us did .

We are Learning to Play Recorders

In music we have been learning to play recorders . We learned about how to play the notes A and B we got little booklets on how to play recorders. First we learned about the note B, in the booklet there was a song about animals we had to play the recorders to the song. There was another song called clean clothes . It was hard at first but then we picked it up . The note B is an easy note but then it got harder for some people . The second week we learned how to play the note A it was fun because when we were playing the song and the recorders I think I broke my leg. Because I got a fright and banged my leg of the table it was funny and sore . Once we got a hang of playing the note A we tried to play note A and B. It was hard because when you had to keep changing your fingers about you got mixed up with notes A and B but we got there in the end .

Football Festival

Last Friday we went to a football festival and lots of different schools were there. We played lots of games. It was fun! At lunchtime we were all dancing and singing. Kady, Sophie, Corey and Dylan won a football and a water bottle for showing good sportsmanship.

It was a great day!

Reading our Stories to some Primary 2 Children

On Wednesday the 5th of June some of the Primary 2’s came into our class for the afternoon. We were reading our stories to them. We went into five groups and showed them our pictures to go with our stories. The groups changed two times but sadly after that we had to get ready for gym.

I thought this was really fun as my little cousin was there!

Banana Smoothies

On the 3rd June we were making lots of yummy treats. We made pizza and banana smoothies and we are going to tell you how we made the banana smoothies. We all had a plate each and chopped some bananas. After that we put the chopped bananas into the blender with ice and milk. Then we all had a taste and it was amazing!

Then we put them into little cups and put them in the freezer. After a couple of days it was sports day. After a hard day of work we took the banana ice lollies out of the freezer and had our ice lollies. They were sensational! Some of them didn’t turn out right so i guess we made slush too. I hope you will try and make the smoothies and ice lollies at home. I also hope you like this blog.
